Ed's email

Here's Ed's email to everyone:
Getting off the ship at Port Vila, Nanuatu, you are immediately struck by the crystal clear clarity of the water. Blended shades of aqua and blue with sun sparkling off the wavelets absolutely dazzle you. You think you are prepared for what is to follow, but you are not. As you leave the town of Port Vila, the lush green foliage bursts upon you with a rainbow of flowers accenting the landscape on all sides. There is not a moment in the drive around the island, that does not overwhelm the senses. But even then, they do not prepare you for the the views at the bays around the island. Banana Bay,is exquisite beyond imagination--imagine Montery Bay combined with Bali Hai amid tropical splendor. This is the closest thing to rapture that we can experience. Bamboo Bay day, even more so. If we had missed the ship, I would have cheered. A month or two here.....in a heartbeat.

All of you need to put this on your "bucket list." This is paradise on Earth.
